Державно-приватне партнерство в національній безпеці. Кейс-стаді в контексті війни в Україні: 2022-2024

Abstract

The aim of the research was to analyze the political implications of public-private partnerships on Ukraine’s national security, using case study methodology and review of documentary sources. The war in Eastern Europe has passed through different stages. Since February 2022, with the so-called “special military operation” the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine, violating the national sovereignty of this country and all norms of public international law guaranteeing relations between civilized sovereign states. As in any war, a key element in the defense of national sovereignty lies in the strategic partnership of the public sector, with private enterprise, to confront the invader. In the case of Ukraine, this strategic partnership involves collaboration between the government and various private companies such as Microsoft, Palantir Technologies and Northrop Grumman, especially in areas such as: cybersecurity, production of inputs, paramilitary organizations, and logistical support of troops on the front lines. It is concluded that by implementing PPPs, the government was able to improve military infrastructure, develop new defense technologies and optimize military training.
